RubberMax® Masticated Rubber v/s Masticated-like Rubber
Rubber Max masticated rubber consistently outperforms masticated-like rubber in strength, abrasion resistance, ozone resistance, and durability under load.
Rubber Max, masticated rubber holds up better against aggressive chemicals and extreme heat, making it the better choice for demanding environments.
Watch this video and decide for yourself why Rubber Masticated Rubber is better than Masticated-like Rubber for your important applications.
Rubbermax Masticated Rubber
Listed below are the few indicators to help you decide why you should choose Rubbermax Fully Vulcanized Masticated Rubber over masticated-like Rubber.
Source
Masticated rubber comes from tire plants and post-industrial recycled streams undergoes a specific mechanical process that enhances its strength, durability, and consistency.
Tensile Strength
The lab results show that Rubbermax masticated rubber has a higher tensile strength with the grain, making it ideal for applications that require flexibility and durability under stress
Elongation Metric
Rubbermax masticated rubber has superior elongation testing results, almost 50% less stretch with the grain and 30% less stretch against the grain, demonstrating the difference of its tire compound versus non-tire compound of masticated like materials.
Density
Since Rubbermax masticated rubber comes from tires and tire material, it has a higher density which shows up in its rating of 76 on the durometer scale, a rating better suited in most industrial applications as not too soft nor to hard.
Strength
Masticated tests over 40% higher tier strength against the grain in its test results, providing strength when needed in real-world applications.
Longevity
Our tests show that masticated rubber-masticated rubber resists ozone damage better, increasing its lifespan under harsh environments.
If you're in an automotive, industrial, or heavy truck application, the choice is clear.
Choosing the right masticated rubber can mean the difference between failure and long-term performance.
